Making a call by using the auto-dial mode
About this task
In an auto-dial mode, when you initiate a call by off-hook, you hear a dial tone until you press any
digit from the dial pad. You can edit a partially entered dialed input after initiating a call. You hear a
DTMF feedback tone for the digits pressed on the dial pad. The phone automatically places the

To initiate a call quickly, you can press the # key to indicate the end of the dial, and the phone
places the call.
